Validate `feature` and `since` values inside `#[stable(…)]`
Previously the string passed to `#[unstable(feature = "...")]` would be validated as an identifier, but not `#[stable(feature = "...")]`. In the standard library there were `stable` attributes containing the empty string, and kebab-case string, neither of which should be allowed.
Pre-existing validation of `unstable`:
```rust
// src/lib.rs
#![allow(internal_features)]
#![feature(staged_api)]
#![unstable(feature = "kebab-case", issue = "none")]
#[unstable(feature = "kebab-case", issue = "none")]
pub struct Struct;
```
```console
error[E0546]: 'feature' is not an identifier
--> src/lib.rs:5:1
|
5 | #![unstable(feature = "kebab-case", issue = "none")]
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
```
For an `unstable` attribute, the need for an identifier is obvious because the downstream code needs to write a `#![feature(...)]` attribute containing that identifier. `#![feature(kebab-case)]` is not valid syntax and `#![feature(kebab_case)]` would not work if that is not the name of the feature.
Having a valid identifier even in `stable` is less essential but still useful because it allows for informative diagnostic about the stabilization of a feature. Compare:
```rust
// src/lib.rs
#![allow(internal_features)]
#![feature(staged_api)]
#![stable(feature = "kebab-case", since = "1.0.0")]
#[stable(feature = "kebab-case", since = "1.0.0")]
pub struct Struct;
```
```rust
// src/main.rs
#![feature(kebab_case)]
use repro::Struct;
fn main() {}
```
```console
error[E0635]: unknown feature `kebab_case`
--> src/main.rs:3:12
|
3 | #![feature(kebab_case)]
| ^^^^^^^^^^
```
vs the situation if we correctly use `feature = "snake_case"` and `#![feature(snake_case)]`, as enforced by this PR:
```console
warning: the feature `snake_case` has been stable since 1.0.0 and no longer requires an attribute to enable
--> src/main.rs:3:12
|
3 | #![feature(snake_case)]
| ^^^^^^^^^^
|
= note: `#[warn(stable_features)]` on by default
